Business as usual

The mighty phwifths continued their magnificent 100% winning streak (2 out of 2 since 27 Jan) with a 5-3 victory away at Slazengers.  Given some of the other results at the weekend, this one won’t go down in history, but the 5s have now beaten Slaz home and away, and totally deserved the win. After an inspirational team talk (“we could win this one, or we could lose it”) the team flew out of the Read more

Where do I begin…

Most of the previous weekly round up blogs have tended to begin with a win for another of our sides who are topping their league or a side who have banged in a hatful of goals.  Last weekend saw 4 of our teams on top of their tables on Sunday evening, we had 4 players score 5 goals apiece in their match, another 2 or 3 bagged hat tricks and we even saw “hell freeze Read more

It was worth the wait…

Adel 3s travelled to Huntingdon eager to make amends for last weeks loss. Due to the skippers tardiness, Fozzy and Greg came up with a cunning formation which seemed to work well from the off with Beale scoring early on, closely followed by 2 more from Will Powley. There was some great passing and moving from the whole team, with space being found all over the pitch. Sadly a hospital pass to Kieran with the Read more

A dark cloud hangs over Adel…

The Mens 4th team had been unbeaten since March 2016, accumulating 31 league wins, 2 draws, a goal difference of +129, from 157 goals scored vs 28 conceded, 17 clean sheets, and 1 league title spanning 22 months of sterling work from all our players.

Leeds Adel 6-0 Boston Spa

Big Bens Men turned up to Adel a few hours earlier than usual for a home game. Those with hangovers felt this impact more than most. Although Boston Spa sit toward the bottom of the table previous encounters suggested this could be a tricky game. With the usual warm up complete Adel started spritely scoring within minutes of the start, from that point on Adel provided a very professional display working well in periods as a Read more

All at sixes and sevens….

It seems like a long time since we last had a day where all of our senior sides ventured on to the playing surface but Saturday finally saw 10 mighty teams from Adel go into battle against a variety of opposition with mixed success (5 wins and 5 defeats), some shocks and some scorelines that were more akin to Roger Federer playing in the Australian open.  Lots of individual plaudits too with several hat tricks Read more
